A VULGAR CORRESPONDENT

The Chronicle would make ten
strike if it cancelled the engage
meat of its Carson correspondent.
His report of the Stewart reception
contained a number of dull-witted
aud vulgar slurs upon the manner
in which the Senator dispensed his
hospitality and how the guests re-
ceived it.
The newspaper has no right to
cross any gentleman threshold
and invade his private pallor for
the purpose of insulting him or his
guests. A journal like the Chron-
icle should understand the social
amenities better than to allow so
low bred an article to creep iats It's
columns. 1t is such stuff as cou-
tanned in tho Chronicle communi-
cation that gives the people OF the
coast the idea that Nevada 10 made
up of Doors and cads. Each news
paper that sends correspondent to
the Capitol during the session has
right to insist that its representa-
tives shall have some little expert
ence at least with people OF passabl,
good bree ding.

The intelligence that tne old
Bowers mansion il about to be dis
mantled and the cut stone taken to
Reno will be received with regret
by every old Nevadan. The his
tory of the old mansion is part OF
the history of the State. 1t was
built by Sandy Bowers years and
years ago after he made big strike
in Comstock securities and nearly
all the furnishings came from Eu-
rope.
Bowers was liberal man an
his wife, who afterwards becam 9
fam GUS as the Washoo Seeress, Was
also full of hospitality, and for sev-
eral years the place resounded with
s5rg, laughter aud the whlz OF
champagne corks-
I've money to feed the birds,
was Bowers wayof putting 1t. his,
of course, could not last long and
presently the owners Of the man
sion had to run it as a public re-
sort and finally it passed out OF
their hands. Sandy died and was
buried along side Of pine tree on
the mountain just back OF the
house, and now man is credited
with more curiosity than sense who
will climb the steep path to look at
it.
The years softened and toned
down the mansion and the grounds
until with its clambering ivy on
the walls, tremulous slime on the
fish ponds, and green moss on the
basin of the fountain, it took on the
look of some old English manor
house. needing only the armoral
bearings to complete the picture
There are few people in Nevads
who have not spent an Afternoon
there in the years gone by witt
some gay picnic party followed by
a jolly bath in. the pond which wa
fed with warm water from natura
springs. No Gays half SO balmy a
these and no sunshine was eve
sifted through the Autumn leave
with such quick glints OF gold a
here on those dreamy afternoon
when you held somebody hanC
for a whole hour obhyIous of tn
fact that you were sitting square OF
a black berry pie anu half the ant
in Washoe county were cllmbln
up your trousers leg.
But now Thompson, that oil
icsnoclast, has got his utllltaria
grip on the building will knoc
out all its romance and fragran
memories bv Juggling the stone owe
to Reno and building a prosal
business house where he can e.

eiirg the threatened strike OF the out

feared will be inaugurated May

crease OF wages from twenty-five
to twenty-five cents per hour IS
not acceded to, and the expression was
uueuimous that the employers could
not afford, under present contracts, to
increase wages. They also decided that
thcv would not recognize the hod-car-
rcTs union under any circumstances,
either at the present or at any other
wages. The president of the associa-
ton says he really expects the strike to
take place Monday.
st meeting of the hod-carricrs
union it was decided to instruct all
mcnbcrs of the union to lay their de
mauds personally before their en-
p.oycrs tomorrow and to ask for
definite reply. The men will make
rcrorts at meeting on Sunday, and
ali those employed by contractors re-
iuang to raise their wages will he
ordcied out.
The plasterers' union passed resolu-
tons prohibiting its members from
handling work done for them by non
uuiCn laborers. This means that the
pl.stcrcrs will refuse to work with men
WHO in case of strike would take the
places of the union hod-carriers. The

LONDON, April 29.-The House OF
Commons tins afternoon went into com
mittee on the Irish crimes act amend
ment bill. r. NJ. Healy proposed that
the word "offence in the act should
be changed to the word "crime."
Dillon and Badlaugh supported the
proposal.
Ialieur, Chief Secretary for Ireland,
declined on behalf of the Government
to accept the change.
Sir William Vernon Harcourt said 1t
was evident that the bill was not in
tended to punish crime in Ireland, but
was designed for applying penalties by
resident magistrates to new offences
created by the bill.
Mr.. Gladstone advised the Govern
ment to concede Mr.. Healy's amend
ment. The word "offence " could
not be HE'D TO be strictly synonymous
with the word "crime" in the bill.
If the Government desired strictly
legal use of the measure they would
accept accurate definitions.
4 division was taken and the amend
ment was defeated by a vote OF l57 to

An Inyestigatlor to be Had.
by telegraph to The DIspatch.l

NEW YORK, April 29.-The sensation
in TIE City Hall here to-day was the
pleiement OF charges against Tax
Commissioners Coleman and Donnelly
before Mayor Hewitt by Charles l..
Schampain, vice president of the Cen
trail Tax-Payers Association. The
charges contain thirteen distinct specih
cations, and the removal OF the commits
sioners is asked. The allegations are
that Commissioners Coleman and Don
nelly have wilfully omitted TO perform
their duty, and have been guilty o;
gross ard culpable negligence IN the
performance of their duty between
the 1st of December, 1885, and
the 1st Of July, 1886; that during
that period they failed to assess
property lawfully entitled to assess
ment aggregating in value $50, 00O,OO0,
and that during the same period they
allowed taxes to the extent of l,000,
coo to be lost to the city. The pro-
perry which they are accused of favor
ing by neglect is described as follows
Tie estate of William Vanderbilt,
S25, $50, 500; New York and Harlem
Railroad Company, $9,059, 3l8; Third
Avenue Railroad Company, 50, 100, 055

road. S7S8,O00; ChristOpher-Street
and Tenth. Street Railroad Company,
goo, eco; Central Crosstown Railroad
Company, $500, aggregating $780,
rs. CiS.
The charges allege that in all these
cases the sworn returns of the corpora
ticns disclose the existence OF accessi-
bic property, and that Coleman and
Donnelly, acting in concert as ma
joriiy of the board, against the
protests of Commissioner Feitner,
neglected to make lawful assess
ments. In the case of the Hudson
Biver Railroad Company the return
Of the company showed S5,Oj7,348.
No assessment whatever was made.
in all the other railroad cases the
amounts shown were in excess of the
assessments made by the commission
ers. In the case of ". II. Vanderbilt,
whose will disclosed over 49,, OO0,O 900
OF taxable bonds, the assessment was
upon 5S,000,000. Mayor Hewitt said
that he would make thorough inyes-
tiCal!On.

they have not sufficient evidence yet to
convict. United States Marshal Meade
has teleqraphcd to the mail authorities
at Washington, urging them to offer an
additional large reward, which, if the
